The Stella is intended to be surgically placed in the upper or lower jawbone to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, restoring the patient's chewing capabilities. The Stella is intended for delayed loading and immediate loading is possible when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading. The Stella Abutment is intended to be connected to the dental implant to retain the overdenture or partial denture.
Device Story
Stella is a dental implant system consisting of a titanium fixture and various abutments (healing, simple, duo, contour, angled, temporary) and screws. The fixture is surgically implanted into the jawbone to support prosthetic restorations. It features a tissue-level, self-tapping design with an internal octagonal connection. The device is used by dental surgeons in clinical settings. The fixture is surface-treated via alumina blasting and pickling to enhance osseointegration. The system restores chewing function for patients with tooth loss. Clinical decision-making is supported by the implant's ability to provide stable anchorage for prosthetics, with options for delayed or immediate loading based on primary stability. Benefits include restoration of masticatory function and dental aesthetics.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Evidence includes fatigue testing per ISO 14801, biocompatibility, shelf-life, sterilization validation (gamma radiation/moist heat), and packaging integrity. MRI safety was evaluated via scientific literature and established standards (ASTM F2052, F2213, F2182, F2119) to assess displacement, torque, heating, and artifacts.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Pure Titanium Grade 4 (ASTM F67) and Titanium Alloy Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM F136). Design: Tissue-level, self-tapping, internal octagonal connection, tapered body. Surface: SLA (Al2O3 blasted and pickled). Sterilization: Gamma radiation (fixtures/screws) or user-sterilized (abutments). Connectivity: Mechanical dental implant system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with partial or total tooth loss requiring dental implants in the upper or lower jawbone to support prosthetic restorations (artificial teeth, overdentures, or partial dentures).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An endosseous dental implant is a prescription device made of a material such as titanium or titanium alloy that is intended to be surgically placed in the bone of the upper or lower jaw arches to provide support for prosthetic devices, such as artificial teeth, in order to restore a patient's chewing function.

| | This product has the same intended use as the predicate device, and its main purpose is to restore the masticatory function by implanting it in the toothless areas of the upper and lower jaws. It is a non-submerged fixture identical to Osstem's SSII/III SA Fixture (K120847), and there is a groove for self-tapping at the end of the body. The diameter of the platform is the same as that of the Osstem. The diameter of the body is similar to that of the Osstem, and the safety of the 3.7mm diameter has been proven in the Luna Dental Implant System. In addition, it was confirmed that there was no strength problem through the fatigue test on the fixture diameter 3.7mm. The length of the product is within the range of the length of the Osstem product. The connection to the abutment is also made of an internal octagonal structure. The raw material was made of Pure Titanium Grade 4 (ASTM F67) in the same way as the predicate device, and the surface treatment was SA-treated. It is manufactured through the same raw materials and manufacturing process as our previously licensed Luna Dental Implant Systems (K123155 / K160106). Sterilization is also provided through gamma sterilization. |

Our previously approved product, Luna Dental<br>Implant System (k123155), uses the same raw materials as the applied product, but<br>only a part of it is coated with TiN. However, the whole is not coated with TiN, and it<br>can be seen that the portion with TiN coating is the worst case in terms of<br>biocompatibility. Thus, the safety of the raw material is demonstrated. This product is<br>sterilized by the user by the method described in the user manual. | | | |

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
